The bird's owner and residents said they have tried everything to catch the bird and return it to the farm where it belongs, but so far, they've been unsuccessful.

In July, two new peacocks moved in at Weber's Cider Mill Farm in Parkville, where they have had peacocks for years. For the first time, one of the two new peacocks flew through a hole in the roof and escaped. That hole has since been covered.

"His usual MO is that he'll walk around, go to a home, peck a little bit, stay in the vicinity where a gentleman has chickens, and he'll go at night into a tree and sleep," said Darla Maher, a Parkville resident.

The peacock that escaped has not gone very far. The bird was seen Thursday just a few blocks from the farm just flaunting the fact that no one can catch him.

"We can't catch it. If you approach it, it will fly up to a roof or a tree. Our hands are tied. We need help to catch the bird," Maher said.

The peacock has moved right in, thinking he owns the place.

"There's a lot of trees and bushes and green lawns between our houses, so I think he's real happy," said Karen Kelly, a Parkville resident.

You can get pretty close to the big bird, but residents said as soon as you try to grab him, he's gone.

"They're very confrontational. They don't like to be approached, so as soon as you do approach them, they fly off and go roost up in the trees," said Marge Murphy, of Weber's Cider Mill Farm.

Residents in the neighborhood said they are concerned the peacock might get hit by a car because he walks into the street.

Weber's Farm has built a special cage to try to catch the bird. For now, the big guy just walks around free.

A PEACOCK IS ON THE PROWL ROAMING THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THE BIRDS OWNER AND OTHER RESIDENTS HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING THEY KNOW TO RETURN IT TO THE FARM WHERE IT BELONGS BUT SO FAR THE PEACOCK HAS OUTFOXED THEM. IT WAS ABOUT OR HE WEEKS AGO WHEN THE PARTNER OF THIS PEACOCK DECIDED TO GET OUT OF HERE AND HE LITERALLY FLEW THE COOP. IT WAS IN JULY WHEN TWO NEW PEACOCKS MOVED IN TO WEBER'S PART. THEY'VE HAD PEACOCKS FOR YEARS BUT FOR THE FIRST TIME, ONE OF THE TWO BIRDS FLEW OUT THROUGH THE HOLE IN THE ROOF. IT HAS SINCE BEEN COVERED. HIS USUAL MO IS THAT HE WILL COME OVER HERE, PECK, STAND THIS FACILITY BECAUSE THIS GENTLEMAN HAS CHICKENS WHO LIVES HERE. THEN HE WILL GO AT NIGHT AND SLEEP. THE PEACOCK HAS NOT GONE VERY FAR. HERE HE HE IS JUST A FEW BLOCKS AWAY JUST FLAUNTING THE FACT THAT NO ONE CAN CATCH HIM. IF YOU APPROACH IT, IT WILL FLY UP TO A ROOF OR THREE. OUR HANDS ARE TIED. WE NEED HELP TO CATCH THE BIRD. THE PEACOCK INKS HE OWNS THE PLACE. THERE ARE A LOT OF TREES AND BUSHES BETWEEN OUR HOUSES. I THINK HE'S REALLY HAPPY. AS SOON AS YOU TRIED TO GRAB HIM, HE'S GONE. THERE ARE VERY CONFRONTATIONAL AND DO NOT LIKE TO BE APPROACHED. I EVEN TRIED SOME OF MY TOP-SECRET PEACOCK BIRD CALLING. COME ON, BUBBA. EVEN THAT DID NOT WORK. OUR BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT IT WILL GET HIT BY A CAR. HE WALKS INTO THE STREET LIKE HE OWNS THE PLACE. WEBER'S FARM HAS A SPECIAL CAGE TO TRY AND CATCH THE BIRD BUT WE'LL SEE. THE BIG GUY JUST WALKS AROUND AS FREE AS A BIRD. HIS SIDEKICK IS ALL UPSET. SHE'S NERVOUS AND DOING A LOT OF PACING. HIS COMPANION IS MISSING HIM QUITE A BIT. HEY THING, JUMPING AND FLYING. IF ANYONE OUT THERE KNOWS HOW
